Arabic text

3385 - أَخْبَرَنَا يُونُسُ بْنُ عَبْدِ الْأَعْلَى، قَالَ: أَنْبَأَنَا ابْنُ وَهْبٍ، قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنِي أَبُو هَانِئٍ الْخَوْلَانِيُّ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ أَبَا عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ الْحُبُلِيَّ، يَقُولُ: عَنْ جَابِرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: «فِرَاشٌ لِلرَّجُلِ، وَفِرَاشٌ لِأَهْلِهِ، وَالثَّالِثُ لِلضَّيْفِ، وَالرَّابِعُ لِلشَّيْطَانِ»

Commentary

'For the Satan or devil' means the thing which does not come into use is forbidden to keep. It is the work of Satan. If there are children and other individuals also, there is no harm even if one keeps scores of beds. It is permitted, because they are being used. 'The fourth' denotes those which are not used.
